I have more time to do it now because my weekend hours have been cut back some. I can only do weekends though...unless y'all want to do weeknights after 11 pm est.

I'm still down to do these joints, but y'all gotta work with me. I'll do the hosting and recording, but I can't be the only one hunting people down. It's gotta be group effort.

Also, we're getting close to full capacity on podomatic. Zero deleted the 1st two episodes...I still have them on my pc. We could upgrade to more than enough space for $88. I can put $15-20 or so on it and 88 said he can too. Can anyone else chip if I set up a paypal account? We just a few people to chip in like $10.

im down to donate.

if we do the upgrade can we re-upload the first two podcasts? gotta preserve history :obama:

Sure. I'm looking at now and it's saying it's $89.91 for 2 GBs and that's a year subscription. But I'm wondering if that means if we don't use the full 2 GBs in a year (which we won't) will we lose it? @zerozero?

Also BK told me there's a site called bandcamp where you can put everything there for free. I created an account there. The problem is you can't publish things in mp3 format, so all the episodes would have to be converted to wav, flac, or aiv files. I don't know how to convert them. I did try to download a program to convert files to flac, but my virus protection told me it was malware, so I was like :whoa:

If any of anybody knows a good way to convert mp3s to wav, flac or aiv that won't give my laptop the e-drips, that could be an option.

Download audacity from ninite.com

Very legit and useful site. Audacity is an open source sound editor

Doesn't look like bandcamp is gonna work, fellas. I was able to convert the mp3's to wavs using audacity, but they have 291 mb per file limit. Every podcast is way bigger than that. I tried compressing it with winrar, but they don't accept that file type...only wav, flac, or aiv.

Any other options others than coming up with that $90 for increased podomatic space?

Find a way to store all these files on a public domain where people can listen and download them because the podomatic joint is getting full and we have to come up with $90 or we'll run out of space after 1 or 2 more episodes. 2 have already been deleted.

I talked to bk about this a while back and he suggested bandcamp.com. But that doesn't look like it's going to work because though they offer unlimited storage, they have an individual file limit of 291 mb and all our files are way bigger than that.

Each podcast is larger than 291 MBs....that can't be true. My 3 hour class lecture recordings are less than by a significant margin.

They nowhere near 291 MBs as mp3s. But you have to convert them to wav, aiv, or flac and they get bigger for some reason as wavs.

The first episode is 85.3 MBs as an mp3. The wav file is 470 MBs.
